The founder’s flag give to a single man a huge power. I can’t trust on almost anybody to hold that power. But In less than two days Jimbo has resigned of this power. By doing this he has proven that he is one of the sparse people we can trust. Wikimedia movement is a complex system. Capacity to take decisions is distributed among a lot of stakeholders. Up to now it has worked pretty well. Along all this discussions I think several weaknesses of Wikimedia movement arisen: This power on single man hands, the foundation need for money, the power concentration in the hands of the board, the feeling that the members of the project can’t do anything, the possibility of forking and creating a project ruled by the chapters… And I could add more, by example: the flags system is organized in a pyramidal way. I think that removing a single piece of this system instead of solving any problem can unbalance the whole. More if this piece has proved extraordinary good results in the past and extraordinary positive attitude in the present. Please give Jimbo those flags back. And start altogether a process of rethinking the whole Wikimedia governance. Improve the system as a whole; find the mechanisms allowing that it is not needed that anybody holds this power.
